We are Riselva School, a small and growing educational project based in the Umbrian countryside, near Orvieto.
We are currently looking for a Head Educator (3–6), an English speaker, to join us and help shape the foundation of our classroom. This is an early-stage project, so the role is about co-creating it from the beginning.
The person we are looking for will play a central role in:
- preparing and setting up the Montessori environment
- establishing the classroom culture and rhythm
- developing the educational path together with the founders
Our approach combines Montessori education with outdoor learning, with a strong connection to nature, the seasons, and a calm, respectful pace of childhood.
We are looking for someone who:
- is an English speaker
- has solid experience in a 3–6 Montessori environment
- holds an AMI 3–6 diploma (preferred) or other Montessori training
- is independent, thoughtful, and enjoys building something from the ground up
- feels aligned with nature-based and experiential education
The position is based in Castel Giorgio, Umbria, in a peaceful rural setting with access to forests, olive groves, and open land.
If this resonates with you, we would love to hear from you. Please send a short introduction and CV to info@riselvaschool.com.
